It's obvious, one needs to look ape-ish to be a big time tennis champ.

good one FFF. I guess Nole/Rafa will never get there (unless Nole could use his humongous chin somehow to improve his skills on the net ). McTooth tho has 'beautiful' teeth, maybe that will help him out to win next 10 slams ... great teeth = playing aggressive tennis .

As daft as this thread is, there is some correlation between facial characteristics and things like aggression and endurance. You couldn't get an exact correlation between certain facial characteristics and performance as a tennis player, because technique is a crucial part of what makes a tennis players serve what they are-and that's learned rather than exclusively genetic. But the big four share the classic 't' man (higher than average testosterone level) face-square jaw, low brow etc.
